Had it at a fancy French restaurant. I was interested in the fact that they're essentially boiled in butter and herbs(?) but my brain 100% did not connect the dots as I forked one and bit in. Burned my mouth so fuckin bad I went through 2 glasses of ice water just so I could taste the halibut special I accidentally spent $70 on.
They're different enough by size and their habitat that we don't encounter them as primates so logically we don't have any reason to have an aversion instinct. Regular insects can be poisonous or parasites but these don't really look like insects.
